Rx Bandits - Overcome (the Recapitulation) Lyrics

We've had enough
We've had enough
We've had enough of the politicians
We've had enough, yeah
Of these politician's wars
What we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
What we need right now is love, come on

We've had enough of these politician's wars
What we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
All we need right now is love
We've had enough of these politician's wars
What we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
All we need right now is love, turn it up

The future is held in the hands who write the textbooks
Ignorance is bred when falsified thinking is taught
To the youth instead of past mistakes and mind elevation
Like the graves that manifest destiny has created
So we can build our capitalist consumer-based economy
To build, market, and sell commodities we don't need
But we are trained to believe like celebrity imaging
Well, I'm here to take my feelings back
And I hope that you all be with me

I can't wait for that day when I hear us all screaming
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
I can't wait for that day when I hear us all singing together
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't wait for that day when I hear us all screaming
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
I can't wait for that day when I hear us all singing together
Oh-oh-oh-oh, come on

I can't wait for the day when I hear us all screaming
"Here comes the revolution"
When every race color and creed of militant human beings stands up
With fists together for substance and true meaning
Because right now we got our feet stuck in cement
We're too caught up in a material status quo punishment
And one thing is for sure and that's the sun will always set
Darling, you can bet our moon is quite the opposite
So baby take an axe to your makeup kit
Set ablaze the billboards and their advertisements
Love with all your hearts and never forget
How good it feels to be alive and strive for your desire
Because you can't see your cage doesn't mean that you are free
When there are laws against nature but it's okay for you to be
Addicted to over-the-counter prescriptions
And magazines dictate all our human relations

I'm not buying, no, I'm not giving in
To a culture that objectifies all of our women, say
I'm not buying, no, I'm not consuming
The apathetic dribble on the news media's chin, yeh
I'm not buying, no, I'm not giving in
The lies that are sold through textbooks to children, yeh
I'm not buying, no, I'm not consuming
'Cause the positive will always overcome the negative right

And we stay inside
It's right outside
We stand in line
We all enjoy the fences
To keep it at bay
But I'm not giving in
